Who we are

Paul Meschiati and Associates Pty Ltd. is a local, well established, multi-faceted and diverse Residential and Commercial architectural design and documentation company, operating since 1983. Projects completed by the company range from luxury, single and multi-storey residential, commercial / industrial, resorts, bars and interior design. The company’s impressive designs have seen it win national residential and commercial design awards.

Paul Meschiati, founder and current director of the company, plays a key role in all design projects whether it’s from overseeing the design team or a direct working relationship with the client.

The company is proud to have been awarded a multitude of State and National Design accolades almost every year for the past 25 years, with the most recent years seeing Paul Meschiati being invited to judge several Design competitions that the company did not enter.

Although based in Nedlands WA, the portfolio of projects have been wide spread, with developments in the Perth metropolitan, Darwin NT, Broome, Denmark, Adelaide, Queensland, Lord Howe Island and across the nation wherever a project requires the company’s expertise. The association with prominent award winning, national and international manufacturers, designers, builders and architects, ensures the very best result, with up to date construction methods and materials.

The team is proud to offer complete architectural design / documentation services. They can also provide project management and superintendent services, which enable projects to be taken to selected builders for the appropriate contractor, and ensure competitive quoting and quality for the final product.

OUR PROCESS

Meet & Agree

Idea & Concept

Design & Create

Build & Install

For many of our clients, the initial meeting with our team opens the doors to the possibilities for their project. Whilst they may already have a vision, our expertise in the industry allows us to determine items such as the feasibility of the project, budget costs and time scheduling.

We are dedicated to ensuring the whole experience for our clients is as enjoyable and hassle free as possible, and will seek out the most efficient, effective and streamlined processes for the project, from start to finish. Once the required services are agreed on, the project can then be taken to the design team.

At Paul Meschiati and Associates, we clearly understand that translating an idea or vision onto paper isn’t always easy. Whether it’s a particular style you want, or an environment in which you wish to create, our design team are more than capable of assisting. We encourage our clients to sit with us, share their ideas, and enjoy the experience of creating something special.

To further assist with concept designs, 3D perspective views and walk-through videos can be provided to help paint a clearer picture of your project. These can be created and amended within a short time frame, ensuring the project flows smoothly and productively.

Once a design has been determined and agreed upon, the team will begin documenting the project. A considerable amount of planning must be done to ensure the project complies with local council/shire regulations as well building design codes, The National Construction Codes and Australian Standards.

Working in tandem with our extensive list of company associates, you can be confident that the best personnel, from varying disciplines, will be working on your project. Ranging from electrical, energy, hydraulic and structural consultants/engineers, to building certifiers – all bases will be covered. This ensures effective documentation, meaning your project can then move onto the construction phase.

Part of our services available is to assist in the construction of a project. Through project management, contract administration and site supervision, our clients can always be assured that we are involved in each step of the project. In certain cases, a site superintendent will be allocated, ensuring an on-site presence is maintained.

We realise that many of our clients have busy schedules, and managing their own development can be stressful. In most cases the stress in a building contract is during the actual construction period and sometimes some distance and personal support for the owner is extremely beneficial.

Paul Meschiati and Associates performed extremely well in more than 30 projects for the Department, some of which included many challenges. They have been efficient, consistent in producing good quality design, diligent, competent and cooperative in all projects assigned to them. Highly recommended for any demanding or responsible Architectural work.

Florence Ong, Senior project manager, DoH - Gov. of Western Australia

During the process, Paul and his team were always professional and diligent in their approach with all aspects of the build and innovative in their attention to detail in all aspects of the construction. I have no hesitation recommending Paul Meschiati and Associates for design, management and supervision of any residential and commercial construction work.

I have used Paul Meschiati and his architectural team exclusively over the last ten years. He has been responsible for the design of large residential projects, regional shopping centres and more currently, a staff accommodation project in Broome. I have found his job management and timing to be most acceptable, compared with any other architectural firm that I have used over the last forty years.
